While looking for something else, I uncovered a slew of $0.00 (that's _free_, for those, like me, who are mathematically-challenged) Kindle ebooks. How many are there? Well, I gave up looking after three pages.
Most of these are in the sci-fi, romance, and mystery/thriller subgenres. A lot of the books have Whispersync companions. All of the ones that I checked are $7.49. I don't consider $7.49 a particularly good deal for a WS deal, but some of the ebooks have quite a lot of pages, enhancing the value of the WS deals, in my view. All of the ebooks that I saw were rated 4 stars or more. https://www.amazon.com/Transmission-Invasion-Chronicles-Book-One-Thriller-ebook/dp/B07D4PMZ42/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1538055077&sr=1-1&pi=AC_SX236_SY340_FMwebp_QL65&keywords="chronicl e+books"&dpPl=1&dpID=41arr0ZP%2BXL&ref=plSrch GtrsRGr8 is not really posting this. I hacked into his account and am _pretending_ to be him. GtrsRGr8 wouldn't be caught dead posting fiction books. Last edited by GtrsRGr8; 09-27-2018 at 10:24 AM. |

It looks like most of the ebooks have names of "publshers." However, looking over some of them, it appears that they all are self-pub outfits, because I didn't recognize any of their names. _Mea culpa_. And to those who read my posts, I apologize, again, for the poor formatting, and mistakes in the URLs. I am still having to use the smartphone, instead of my real computer, for the time being. |

Old Man and the Sea by Ernest Hemingway is 99p as a UK Kindle Daily Deal today.
link: https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00FU7V8IG/ The last novel Ernest Hemingway saw published, The Old Man and the Sea has proved itself to be one of the enduring works of American fiction. It is the story of an old Cuban fisherman and his supreme ordeal: a relentless, agonizing battle with a giant marlin far out in the Gulf Stream. Using the simple, powerful language of a fable, Hemingway takes the timeless themes of courage in the face of defeat and personal triumph won from loss and transforms them into a magnificent twentieth-century classic. |

Of course, it was only a time-limited offer. I was simply pointing out that the "not available for purchase" message has nothing to do with price changing, but is due to geographical restrictions.

But I have recently experienced that I sometimes can't buy a series of books. "This series is currently not available for purchase." I can however buy the individual books. |

In this particular case (the Phillipa Gregory novels) it's the common situation of different US and UK publishers: Touchstone in the US and Simon and Schuster in the UK. Hence the US edition is unavailable to us here in the UK, and similarly the UK version will be unavailable to people in the US.
